• a side surface;
• a sealing surface extending approximately horizontally in the direction of movement such that said sealing surface faces said moving surface;
• a supply channel in the form of a cutout facing the direction of movement, said supply channel being a first cutout portion in the sealing surface and a second cutout portion in the side surface, said supply channel having a first inclined wall and a second inclined wall such that said first and second inclined walls come together at a bed radially inside of said first and second inclined walls, which when said supply channel is viewed in said direction of movement it is arranged at a beginning of each of said first sealing element and said second sealing element and opens outwardly;
• and
• at least one feed channel for a lubricant, said at least one feed channel terminating in the supply channel, wherein said supply channel of the first sealing element faces outside the suction box and said supply channel of the second sealing element faces inside the suction box.
